Yes. Seasonal flu shots for the 2009 - 2010 flu season are available. I just got my flu shot last Friday (Friday October 16th, 2009). So, if you haven't gotten yours yet, then I suggest you get your flu shot as soon as you can. I didn't even feel a thing when I got my shot.
The Swine Flu vaccines are being distributed for local vaccination programs and to doctors and other providers.
